3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Oceanaire POLARIS is a portable water-cooled air conditioner designed for permanent or temporary spot cooling applications. The entire air conditioning unit has been built in an attractive sheet metal cabinet, equipped with heavy-duty casters for mobility. All POLARIS models come with a 10-foot power cord for electrical connection and added mobility in service. These spot-coolers are designed to direct air to specific areas or objects through a discharge grill located on the upper-front of the unit, while rejecting heat from the top of the unit. The POLARIS models range in cooling capacities from 12,000 BTU/HR to 60,050 BTU/HR to satisfy most space cooling requirements. The POLARIS is a self-contained unit with the entire cooling system, fan motors and electrical components neatly arranged in a gray polyester powder coated metal cabinet. When connected to the proper source of electrical power, a 24-volt thermostat controls the POLARIS unit to provide the desired level of comfort and cooling. A wide variety of accessories and factory installed options are available for the POLARIS units allowing for improved performance and versatility.

5 CABINET STANDARD FEATURES The PWC-Series cabinet is constructed of 18 gauge steel with a gray polyester powder coated finish that will compliment any decor. The entire cabinet is insulated with a soundabsorbing insulation for cool, quiet comfort. All units come equipped with handles and swivel casters for portability and convenient set-up. ELECTRONIC THERMOSTAT All POLARIS units are equipped with a non-programmable electronic thermostat. When power is connected to the unit, the thermostat will control the unit to cool a space to the desired temperature. The thermostat is also capable of controlling the fan to operate automatically (when needed) or continuously. To protect the compressor from shortcycling, there is a built-in, 4-minute time delay in the thermostat. FAN SPEED CONTROL A two position rocker switch, located next to the thermostat, provides the user with the option of running the evaporator fan in high-speed or low-speed. CONDENSATE PUMP All POLARIS units come equipped with an Automatic Condensate Pump that disposes of the condensate. The pump discharges through a 3/8 male falre connection located on the back of the unit. The automatic pump is capable of a 20ft lift, to handle just about any installation requirement. CONDENSATE ALARM LIGHT On the front of all POLARIS models, there is a Condensate Alarm Light (RED) located near the thermostat. For models less than 5-tons, the light indicates that the condensate tank is full and needs to be emptied. In the 5-ton POLARIS units (model PAC60) the light indicates a condensate pump over-flow condition where the pump is either disabled, or incapable of rejecting the condensate water, and must be serviced. FILTERS All POLARIS units are equipped with washable filters at the air intakes. 1/8 mesh air filters located behind the evaporator return air grill serve to filter the air before it is cooled. The filters can be easily removed and cleaned. HIGH PRESSURE SAFETY SWITCH Located on the back of the POLARIS unit is a manual re-set high pressure switch, used for the protection of the compressor in the event that the condenser water supply is turned off. If the condensing pressure exceeds the limit setting, the cut-out shuts down the compressor, while the evaporator fan remains running. The compressor can be restarted, once the condensing pressure has lowered, by depressing the RESET button. POWER CORDS All POLARIS units come with power cords, convenient connection and portability. All units except the 5-ton models, and 3-phase models are equipped with LCDI for added safety devices. 3

6 SPOT COOLER APPLICATIONS The POLARIS can be used in an open environment to cool specific objects or "spots". Spot Cooling is a convenient and economical way to provide air conditioning where cooling the entire space is impractical. Cool air is discharged from the unit and is directed where it is needed. Nozzle kits can be used to improve direction of the cooling airflow. AREA COOLER When the POLARIS is installed in an area that is not totally enclosed, the condenser hot air exhaust duct directs condenser air out of the area, allowing the evaporator air to cool the specific space. ROOM AIR CONDITIONER When ducted, the OceanAire POLARIS can be used as a room air conditioner to cool an enclosed space. Using the condenser return air plenum (DCP) and ceiling discharge kit (CK) and ceiling panel kits CK-PL accessories, the POLARIS can operate as a room air conditioner with the condenser air isolated form the conditioned space.
